Abstract

The present invention relates to a system comprising: an intervertebral disc replacement device having first and second members; an insertion handle (800) comprising a shaft (802) a longitudinal bore (804) extending from the proximal end (808) toward the distal end of the shaft (802)and a manipulation feature disposed substantially at the proximal end (808) of the shaft (802); an insertion plate connected with and maintaining the first and second members of the intervertebral disc replacement device in registration with one another for substantially simultaneous insertion into an intervertebral disc space of a spinal column, the insertion plate operable for detachable engagement with the insertion handle (800), the insertion plate including a base having a posteriorly directed surface directed toward the first and second members, and a spaced apart anteriorly directed surface, at least one of the base of the insertion plate and the shaft (802) including a stem, and the other including a bore (804), such that the stem is receivable in the bore (804), and the insertion handle (800) and insertion plate detachably engage one another; and a pushing member (902) hand being slideably receivable within the longitudinal bore (804), wherein the insertion handle (800) is detachable from the insertion plate to facilitate removal of the insertion handle (800) when the intervertebral disc replacement device is positioned within the intervertebral disc space.
